This recombinant monoclonal antibody is a research-grade biosimilar to litifilimab, designed to specifically target CLEC4C (C-type lectin domain family 4 member C), also known as BDCA-2 or CD303. CLEC4C is a type II transmembrane receptor predominantly expressed on plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), where it functions as an inhibitory receptor that regulates interferon-alpha production. Upon engagement, CLEC4C suppresses Toll-like receptor signaling pathways, making it a critical checkpoint in innate immune responses. Dysregulated CLEC4C signaling and excessive interferon production by pDCs are implicated in autoimmune diseases, particularly systemic lupus erythematosus and cutaneous lupus erythematosus.
Litifilimab, the reference antibody, is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds to CLEC4C and inhibits interferon production from activated pDCs. This biosimilar provides researchers with a valuable tool for investigating pDC biology, interferon-mediated pathways, and autoimmune disease mechanisms. It supports studies examining immune regulation, inflammatory responses, and potential therapeutic interventions targeting the interferon axis in lupus and related autoimmune conditions.
